Yield and Fruit Weight of Six Strawberry Cultivars over Two Seasons in Subtropical Queensland, Australia Open
Research was conducted to examine the marketable yield and fruit weight of six strawberry cultivars (Fragaria × ananassa Duch. ‘Festival’, ‘Fortuna’, ‘Brilliance’, ‘Red Rhapsody’, ‘Sundrench’ and ‘Suzie’) over two years in subtropical Quee…

Temperatures above 30 <sup>o</sup> C decrease leaf growth in strawberry under global warming Open
Productivity in strawberry is dependent on carbon assimilation in the leaves. The main scenarios for climate change include an increase in the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere and an increase in temperature. This review examined the …

The Stability of Important Fruit Traits in Strawberry in Queensland Open
Information was collected on yield and fruit quality in ‘Festival’, ‘Fortuna’, ‘Red Rhapsody’, ‘Fronteras’, ‘Grenada’ and ‘Petaluma’ strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) in southern Queensland, Australia. Marketable yield was similar in …

Effect of Global Warming on the Yields of Strawberry in Queensland: A Mini-Review Open
Light, temperature and rainfall affect the growth and yield of strawberry plants (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.). The objective of this review was to determine the impact of global warming on the yields of strawberry in a temperate (summer cro…

Higher Temperatures Decrease Fruit Size in Strawberry Growing in the Subtropics Open
Five strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivars were grown in Queensland, Australia to determine whether higher temperatures affect production. Transplants were planted on 29 April and data collected on growth, marketable yield, frui…

No Evidence of Excessive Leaf Production by Strawberries Grown in the Subtropics Open
Fruit growth in most plants is strongly dependent on photosynthates produced in the leaves. However, if there are too many leaves, the lower part of the canopy becomes heavily shaded and yields are reduced. Experiments were conducted to de…

Temperature Has a Greater Effect on Fruit Growth than Defoliation or Fruit Thinning in Strawberries in the Subtropics Open
Fruit size declines in strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) as the season progresses in many subtropical areas, possibly due to inadequate leaf area, over-cropping, or high temperatures. An experiment was conducted to investigate the i…

Changes in the Concentration of Leaf Nitrogen over the Season Affect the Diagnosis of Deficiency or Sufficiency in Strawberries in the Subtropics Open
Optimum leaf nitrogen (N) concentrations have been identified for strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa Duch.) in temperate and Mediterranean areas, but whether these values are appropriate for the subtropics is unclear. Two experiments were cond…
